Spaniards swoop for American starlet

Racing Santander have signed United States Under 20 international Danny Szetela. The midfielder has joined the Spanish outfit on a two-year contract from MLS side Columbus Crew. Szetela recently held transfer talks with AS Roma and reportedly turned down a move to Newcastle. However, Szetela - who made 28 appearances in his three years with Columbus - opted to join Racing hours before Friday's transfer deadline. The 20-year-old struggled for first-team football in 2006 after suffering a number of injuries, but he is hopeful of succeeding in Spain.
